Wait for the GateRailroad grade crossings are a common element of traffic safety in many communities. Their lowered gates, flashing lights, and ringing bells warn of a train’s approach and they should always be regarded with caution. Trains are fast and can’t stop quickly. A train traveling at 60 mph can take up to a mile to stop. Each year, people are killed or injured in accidents that could have been prevented if they had simply taken the extra time to look, listen and heed the warning signs.

Watch the Gap Look for these
signs throughout our system. Please watch your step when entering and exiting
the trains, and pay special attention to the gap between the train door
and the station platform. When traveling with young children, be sure to
hold their hands while entering or exiting the train. And always keep a
safe distance from the edge of the platform. Please see HERE for
more information.
